Jan-Frode Myklebust updated TS-2392:
------------------------------------
Description:
ATS does not seem to support the elliptic curve diffie hellman ephemeral key
exchanges (ECDH) that are available in openssl. It seems these needs to be
enabled explicitly to take advantage of them. Ref: the following commit for how
this support was added to apache httpd v2.3.3:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-cvs/200911.mbox/%[email protected]%3E
and for stud:
https://github.com/bumptech/stud/pull/61/files
Maybe both a DH key exchange needs to be set up, and then the various elliptic
curves needs to be initialized..?
Checking the openssl docs, I see SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback() needs to be
called to set up the ephemeral keys:
http://www.openssl.org/docs/ssl/SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback.html
